Mr. Arakawa asked if he could share some of the takeaways of his conversations with the mayors and governor in a recent meeting. Mr. De Fries responded that they are invited every other week to provide visitor industry updates and situation analysis for summer as DBED estimated the U.S. market to be at 120% this year compared to 2019. He added that it is incumbent to pass the info to the head of states and to each of the island counties. Mr. De Fries compared COVID 19 to the Cataclysmic Explosion (Big Bang) when it hit and that a space was created which was the beginning of something new.
